Monday 2nd November

Future-proofing audio measurement: what has 2020 taught us about listening and its measurement?

How many radio measurement services around the world were affected by the COVID crisis and how are they responding in the short and long term? What have those services that managed to keep going learnt about the impact of the crisis on radio and audio consumption? Has the balance permanently shifted towards passive and online forms of data collection for radio and audio? Meanwhile, are streaming solutions growing in importance and is there anyone out there who hasn’t set up a podcast by now?

The future of content delivery: how will linear and on-demand content coexist?

With broadcasters looking towards their own VOD services to counter the deep pockets and global reach of SVOD players, what is the optimum business model in terms of the balance between advertising and subscription and between linear and VOD offerings?

Beyond exposure: is it time for an attention-based gold standard?

We will be exploring the whole concept of ‘attention’ to media channels and to the ads that appear within them. How should we define it, and measure it? How can we best use it in planning campaigns? Should we be considering incorporating it into the currency measures? And do the same rules and principles extend beyond video media forms?

Frictionless measurement: has COVID-19 changed measurement forever?

The pandemic is far from over, but we will try to evaluate its long-term impact on how we measure audiences. How can measurement services be made more resilient to future crises?

Friday 6th November

When you wish upon a (North) star: will the cross-media dream come true?

The drive towards cross-media measurement, conducted at a pace well below the speed limit over the last few decades has now been greatly accelerated by the formulation of a WFA global framework. We look at what prompted the initiative and how it is being applied at a local level, specifically with the UK Project Origin pilot. What is needed for it to succeed? What other solutions could provide inputs or alternatives? Could better solutions be developed organically at a local level from the ground up? And, importantly, what do we really mean by ‘cross-media measurement’ in the first place?

Session includes:

Introduction by session chair, Richard Asquith, Consultant

Keynote interview with Stephan Loerke, CEO, WFA
